The pair named their daughter Kaori. Hart has joked that after Kaori’s birth, he and Eniko are “throwing in the towel.”
Ovarian Cancer Hit the Hart Family
Hart lost his mother to ovarian cancer in 2007. Ovarian cancer has been called “the cancer that whispers,” due to its hard-to-detect symptoms. And its causes are also hard to spot.

Dr. Karen Zempolich tells SurvivorNet, “Most of the time, ovarian cancer happens randomly. Genetic changes occur spontaneously within cells that make them turn cancerous. But a smaller percentage of women with ovarian cancer have inherited a genetic predisposition that make them more likely to develop this cancer.”

“Testing for these inherited gene changes can help better target the treatment women receive and inform the health decisions their family members make.”
Advancements in Ovarian Cancer
While there is no screening test for ovarian cancer – making it one of the more difficult cancers to diagnosis early – there have been advancements in ovarian cancer since the time of Hart’s mom’s death.

When it comes to treatment options, Dr. Zempolich says: PARP inhibitor drugs work best in women who have BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, because the cancer cells are already at a loss to repair themselves. Taking PARP inhibitors can extend the time before a woman’s cancer comes back, and possibly prolong her survival.”

Even though the Harts are missing their matriarch, Nancy Hart, they’ve been blessed with this new bundle of joy. And perhaps they can take solace in knowing that others like Nancy, who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer, may have a greater chance at beating the disease.
